Oak trees are incredibly large

Majestic

Or some would say Majestical

The breeze feels better 

when you can hear it pass

 through the oak leaves 

They can be aggravating 

despite their grand majesty 

I spent too much time this weekend 

filling heavy-duty garbage bags 

with oak leaves

That my father and I raked up

I saw them filled with toilet paper

On Tucks Saturday 

Highlighted with bands of white

Their glory 

Was magnified 

Why “live” oak?

Question for Google?

“Live” oak refers to oaks that keep their leaves year-round 

I guess it means they keep some leaves year round

Because they sure drop a lot of them on the yard.
